Reviews of The Tip Shop - Newport
S. G. K.Best thing they ever did! Saves queues on the main road holding all the traffic up. Just drive in. The ones that complain are those who don’t like the booking system and would rather just drive up anytime. The guys are really helpful and keep the place clean. Well Done all! Appreciated.
A. C.Excellent
j. m.Ok
D. C.Well organized
k. w.helpful
a. c.Like a tip
S. T.I managed to buy two things for just a pound here yesterday. They were a bargain! They were brand new and there was one worth £26 when I checked on the web later. The two men who worked there were friendly. It feels really good to keep things out of landfill and to help raise money for the charity Wastesavers. I managed to buy two things for only a pound.

K. C.I booked a visit to the centre today as it reopened following the covid 19 closure. I must say the Team there had put a lot of work into making everything run smoothly. From my experience I think the booked slots should continue as the new normal.

S.Good range of recycling options. Staff were really helpful, but improving site signage could vastly improve the experience and lessen the need to ask the staff so many questions. Needs more detailed information on council website so that we could have sorted recycling correctly prior to slinging it into the car.
D. H.Simple online booking service for Covid time slots. The team working there were fabulous being friendly and efficient. Some of the public were not practicing social distancing, that was frustrating 😤.
n. m.Considering the current situation with the covid-19 thebrun to the tip was better than anticipated. Of your lucky enough to get an appointment then its pretty straight forward. I got to my appointment 10 minutes early and went straight in. I drove around the opposite way thats normally permitted and was greeted by one of the employees. He asked whether I had any electrical devices, oil or car batteries. I had electrical. Before I was to go to the general area I had to drop my electricals to the designated area. When I got to the main tip part I was guided in and shown where to park. There are inky 4 vehicles allowed in at any one time. Another employee was at hand to guide me to the correct bins. At present you are given a 39 minute time slot, for me personally I was in and out in around 10 mins. As long as you follow the rules due to the pandemic then you won't have an issue. All in all the trip was straight forward and hassle free.
G. J.The site is well run and the staff on the day were very friendly and helpful including explaining the layout of the site, booking a slot really helps, will definitely come back! 🤣
C.Staff are always friendly and helpful. Online booking is is simple and site layout is easy to navigate.
J. W.Awesome. No more queuing. No more people from other boroughs using our waste site. Keep up the good work and please keep it like this. Staff are very helpful and friendly. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
T. M.Seems very well thought out with having to book an allotted time slot to go to the Tip. It does limit the busy queues you used to see down there.
J. C.I hope the system of pre-booking before you arrive stays in place when we "return to normal", as it is far less congested as a result.
M. J.Plenty of empty skips and steady controlled flow of pre booked vehicles passing through. Staff we helpful and friendly.
C. L.This is the first time we’ve used the centre since before Covid. We arrived bang on time and drove in. The signage is not clear on where you are meant to go and I ended up going the wrong way. The man sitting waiting to book you in made no attempt to indicate which way to go or even to stand up to make it clear you needed to stop to book in (no sign for that either). I found his attitude antagonistic which didn’t help the situation. He did explain where each area was but finishing by telling me to drive safely was just red rag to a bull. Once we got past him, there was plenty of space to park where you needed to and his colleague was helpful in directing you when it wasn’t clear.
Better signage would help things run smoother.
I. B.Another trip to this facility was a joy, no queuing, staff very helpful. In and out in 10 mins. Let's hope the booking system continues after covid has gone.
S. M.Used facility today and was really impressed by the organisation and friendly helpful staff. Well done Newport let's keep the service as a bookable service, it runs like clockwork.
V.All clean and tidy, booking system means the site isn't very busy which is a good thing. The site workers are polite and friendly.
G. J.lovely to visit this site and see happy smiling faces on friendly approachable staff members who are all very polite keeping their distance and keeping the site clean tidy and safe to use . WELL DONE GUYS
J. P.Excellent new system, it woukd be brilliant if this could be kept after the lockdown, maybe with a few more vehicles but the booking system is amazing and no huge queues out on the road.

A. B.So easy now you have to book. Staff are always very friendly and helpful.
R. P.A great day out but be sure to get there early to avoid the queues.
P. C.Helpful, friendly team, well organised. Shame about the height of the cardboard skip- I had to throw my cardboard as high as I could just to get it in. I can't see many ladies getting it in!
A. P.Easy booking process which should continue from now on...place much cleaner and tidied, with extra large bins...no other cars and no more rubbish strewn everywhere...edcellent

S. C.Today was great. I arrived earlier than my appointed time, was checked in drove round, and there were 2 cars using the household waste site, by the time I was going there were 3 cars using it. Very pleased with the facilities and the time it took 5o use it.

S. B.Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Thank you.
M. E.Very helpful staff, ready and willing to help.
P. H.Straight in with an appointment, friendly staff, easy and straightforward.
N. M.We booked an appointment which was quite difficult initially online. When I turned up to the centre, there was clear instructions on how to enter and unload. No queuing and was very well managed. I must say that if the council could adopt something similar when the lockdown is over it would save the queues on the dual carriageway which must be an accident waiting to happen. I'm sure that this system could be modified to ensure a smooth and safe process.

A. L.Is it the landfill where 7500 BTC are lost?
L. R.Very well organised.
m. p.Dangerous place, how know one has been run over I do not know!
A. C.Entry has to be prebooked using a devilishly user unfriendly app. Once you're booked (nearly always 2 weeks away) entry is strictly controlled but relatively straightforward. Skips are clearly marked and movement around them easy whilst observing self distancing. However, staff in control are relatively friendly but are poorly briefed and not able to provide guidance where to put unusual waste - in my case partly rotting decking wood.
S. A.Well organised during covid
B. T.Really helpful staff.
C. W.Fantastic service of recycling with lovely people to serve you

M. S.Well laid out and organised into different areas and the staff very helpful in directing you once there. There is a circular route so if you miss your bay or can't get parked it's easy to go around again within the site. Can get very busy at peak times, especially weekends so choose your visit time carefully.
